I highly recommend the movie "Off The Map."

Saw it last night. It's an indie film about self discovery. Pretty subtle, but a beautiful film. Has anyone here seen it?

2. That's the one

It's pretty slow moving, but it's not as depressing as it sounds. Not that it's like "The Station Agent" but if you liked that one, you'll like this.

4. I have enjoyed both Off the Map and The Station Agent a number of times.

I have many, many movies on dvd, but those are two that I will always want to watch over again and again. Both are just very nice and well-told stories.
